The kiss was violent. Vicious. Stealing my breath and kicking my heart with connection.
As quickly as he’d kissed me, he fisted my hair, marched me to the centre of the library, then kicked my feet out from beneath me.
I cried out as I landed heavily on my knees.
My palms smarted as he shoved me forward.
And my ears rang as he stomped back to the towering shelving, selected a leather-bound volume thick enough to be used as a doorstop, then marched back toward me.
Chapter Fifteen
………………………….
Henri
GODDAMMIT, I HAVE GOT TO stop kissing her.
Every time I slipped, her taste burned deeper into my psyche. Every press of our lips, I slid farther on the slope of wanting something I couldn’t have.
Never again.
No more kisses.
No more whispers.
No more truths.
She’d promised me she wouldn’t fight.
That was enough.
With her in on the ruse, I could act like them, fuck like them, abuse like them, all while Ily trusted that every bruise I gave her was for the greater good.
The greater good?
Shit.
Why did that make me feel so seedy? So dirty?
She thinks you’re a cop.
I stood behind her with a book in my hands. A book I had no intention of reading, ready to play my part.
She’d promised to play with me.
And in return, I made her a silent vow.
I would never kiss her again.
No matter what I did to her.
No matter how many times I had to fuck her, hurt her, make her sob and beg and cry, I would never steal another kiss.
Never allow such intimacy to form.
Never let her think I was redeemable.
This was a business arrangement…nothing more.
